I'm willing to "sacrifice" trans rights in women's sports. There's at least some point there that's debatable.

I'm not willing to harass people over what bathroom they use.

    I was asked some three or four years ago my stance and I didn't have one then it wasn't even something I thought should be considered. How has your attitude changed in the last few years?

    Furthermore, do you consider yourself well represented by the Democratic Party now? Or were you better represented in the past?

    I've come around very slightly on how hormones level the playing field, but not really. The problem in sports is that we are filtering for the exceptional. There's a better reason to segregate sports by gender than there are bathrooms.

    Well represented? Not really. I think we have a system where money plays too big of a role, nobody in the Dem party really runs on big ideas, and everything is rightfully consumed by the fight against fascism.

    But I also think those problems are very much secondary to Mango Mussolini. And I think even most establishment Dems try harder than they're given credit for.

    It's always easier to throw tomatoes from the sidelines than it is to actually lead.
